Merry Go Round Model


About a month into my stay as a intern working on the Demo Reel project one of my supervisors ask me to help him remodel two items the company were using in a Toyota Car Commercial.

The first was very simple, two polls with three levels of dangling wires connecting them together. The wires would then have small triangle flags connected to them. the flags and to a lesser extent the wires had to be slightly animated to look like they were moving in the breeze.

The Second model, and the one that took much of my time on, was a large merry-go-roundoriginally model led by another intern in the studio. The intern who was first assigned to it was still in school and still learning to uses 3d computer software. And although she did a wonderful job on many of the smaller detailson the model did not properly manage the geometry.

I had to go in and condense the geometry, re-cut most of the surfaces sothey had four sides, rescaled and moved allot of stuff so it didn't look wonkyor clipped through itself. I could go on but I don't want to sound like I tookall the credit for this model. As per the flags I also had to animate the horsesas they went around the merry-go-round.

Here is a 3/4 shot of the model un-texture.



 I hope to get a copy of the final project so and when I do I will defiantlyupload a copy into this post.
